Hi-viz certainly has its place. But now everyone wears one. It seems to make them think they are somehow in charge of everyone else too. Put a man in a hi-viz because he's sweeping the road and he suddenly thinks he can stand in the middle of the street directing juggernauts.
Anyway.
I think the most ridiculous example for me recently was the man who came to change our Virgin tv box. He parked outside my house. Knocked on the door. Decided he was going to replace the box - went to his van at the end of my path, put on his hi-viz, came into my lounge, changed the box, went back to his van and took his hi-viz off.
What did he think, Mrs C wouldn't see him and hoover him up?
